I'm far from any kind of specialist... But being that his foot wasn't planted I think.internal damage is less likely. I suspect the verdict will be sprain, hyperextention, brusing or something along those lines. Im hopeful it isn't anything worse.. and I expect to see him in a brace next week. If it were up to me I might sit him tho

If its a sprain as being reported, that usually means there is some ligament damage. Like somebody said above, since the knee wasn't planted maybe we got lucky and the ligaments were only stretched. They could also be slightly torn or completely torn which is the worst case. This kid is our future and he should not play at all if there is indeed ligament damage of any kind.

This up coming MRI will seal this seasons fate no doubt about it.

For sure but.... Look at Big Ben. That guy would play with one arm and one leg. This season could be over shortly or RG can play and extend it for a while. Every single game is a play off game for now on. He needs to play.
